Property Management… "Maria’s professionalism was an undercurrent in all of the dynamics that took place when managing my property over the past three years. She was attentive, prompt and ensured that issues were addressed in a timely and effective manner. Maria also managed interactions with tenants with finesse and grace. She was able to uphold my priorities as an owner while making sure that tenants were happy and comfortable." Sold Property… "I recently sold my tenant occupied investment property with Maria as my agent. Maria does her homework when it comes to analyzing the Carlsbad market and balancing the priorities of a prompt sale with the right price for a property. She is also very experienced with navigating the nuances of selling a home that is tenant occupied. She went the extra mile to ensure that my tenants were well-informed and had input and control about how best to proceed." "Maria was well aware of the sensitivity of the matter when selling what had been an investment property for the owner but a home to the tenants. Maria did her best create a dynamic that made it possible for everyone to effectively manage the transaction with an open dialogue. Maria’s efficiency, professionalism and attention to detail made all the difference in the sale of my home."

"I would like to offer my heartfelt thanks to you for seamlessly orchestrating the sale of my home in Logan Heights. I was overwhelmed with the life changes that my divorce and cross-country move had placed upon me, but you were with me every step of the way. I knew right away when I saw the beautiful MLS listing that you created for my home, that I was in the hands of a consummate professional. Attracting the perfect buyer so quickly proved that your intuition was right-on. Thank you for your patience and understanding with me and my ex husband as we worked to resolve our differences and move forward with the sale of the house. Thank you also for the many, many details that you attended to during the escrow process. Your help has been invaluable to me and I will gladly recommend you to anyone I know who is interested in buying or selling a home. You are a wonderful person, Tj, and I wish you many blessings in the New Year!"

"Many thanks to Calres and their team! My realtor Rita Kelley was Amazing on the sell of my deceased moms reverse mortgage property. Rita was friendly, professional and listened to our needs and concerns. We had a Heggstadt petition issue. Rita was available every step of the way. She was available with the answers to questions and even those that we didn't think of. The time Rita spent beforehand regarding the Heggstadt petition was overwhelming for our family. She remained very optimistic and positive through it all. Rita was very knowledgeable and instrumental in providing suggestions to seek legal advice to resolve title issue. This process should have been lengthy but was done expeditiously. We were able to meet the time frame needed to sell the property. My family will be forever grateful for personalized and professional handling of the sale. Thank you Calres and your wonderful team!"

"My wife and I had just a few days to spend in Oceanside to find and close on a house, and having never been to the area before, we desperately needed a realtor up for the challenge. We knew we had the right person as soon as we met TJ. She listened first, then formulated a plan based on her experience, familiarity of the area and knowledge of current events in the market. Before the first day was done, TJ had a full grasp on what would work for us, and she made the difference by showing us a house that wasn’t yet listed but somehow she knew was available and the one for us. And she was right. At ease in the competitive market, TJ stood with us throughout the offer and closing process, and today we could not be happier owning our dream home. Thank you TJ, we could not have done it without you!"

"A few months ago, I approached Maria of California Residential, and told her I was interested in very casually looking for a townhome to purchase. Even though I was in no position to buy, Maria agreed to work with me, and we immediately began establishing parameters for my search. At this stage, I was just “window shopping.” I had a lot to do to get all my ducks in a row before purchasing a property could ever become a reality. The first step was to list my condo. We listed it and had several showings and open houses, all of which Maria organized and hosted. None of the other condos in my complex were moving and neither was mine! In the meantime, we put four offers in for townhomes to purchase! Because they were all contingent upon the sale of my condo, the sellers were either not interested in working with us, or we lost the purchase to other bidders. Maria never gave up on me or on my dream. We eventually decided that a home would be more up my alley. Oh man, did I find the perfect place!!! Some how, some way, Maria and her staff were able to manage the sale of my condo and the purchase of my forever home all in the same week. If you are ever considering selling or purchasing property in San Diego County, there is only one choice in realtors. Maria and company are the real deal. They are so professional, prompt, efficient, honest, hard working, and fair. Thank you a million times for being such an integral part of securing our dream home!"

"TJ worked well with both the personal representative of the estate and his attorney in this Probate sale involving an estate being administered in another county. She communicated well, making sure that we were up to date on developments, and took the time to be sure that the proper forms were used and time limits observed. She was also effective in marketing the property. Our result was a successful Probate sale, completed in good order. Thanks TJ!"

"My husband and I worked really hard to save for our first home. Everyone warned us that buying a home would be a challenging and frustrating process. We really didn't know where to start or how the process would work, but then we found Maria Roller! Maria was the most professional and kind individual I have ever worked with. From the moment she met us, she listened and really tried to get to know us and our style, and what we were looking for in a home. She always had a positive and energetic attitude, which made the home buying process very fun! Maria was up to showing us anything and everything so we could find the perfect fit. You can imagine our amazement when we located our perfect home within three weeks of starting! She also took the time to explain things and help us through escrow, since this was all new to us. Without a doubt, I highly recommend her, and I know she will be our realtor for any further property consultations. Thank you so much Maria for all that you've done! We are so happy and love our new home!"

Maria handled the sale of the house we had occupied for 26 years as well as the purchase of our newly found home. Though both in Vista, they are very, very different properties. Maria was thorough and knowledgeable about all of Vista. We never felt that we "wasted our time" looking at listings that did not match what we were looking for. We would recommend Cal Res to anyone shopping for a realtor to purchase or sell.

We can't say enough good things about Maria Roller and California Residential Consulting! We had a strategy to roll the equity from our home of 18 years into something more suitable to the needs of our growing kids as they entered high school. Maria and her trusted team helped us navigate a challenging acquisition of a fantastic home in Olde Carlsbad, then turned around and quickly sold our existing home for a great price. We closed on both escrows within 30 days of each other. Maria was born and raised in North County and we would highly recommend her services and local knowledge to anyone looking to buy or sell (or both) a home in the area!

My husband and I found Kim somewhat by accident, but we are SO happy that we did. She walked us through purchasing our first home and made the process incredibly seamless. After first meeting her, she immediately put our needs first and made us feel as though we were her most important clients. She took us to see several properties, helped us to weigh our options with honest feedback, and supported our decisions each step of the way. Once we had found a place that we wanted to make our home, she helped us to solidify an offer while simultaneously calming our nerves! We cannot say enough about her sincere demeanor, prompt follow-ups, and her go-getter attitude. Her knowledge of the Carlsbad area is great as well, and she has since provided us with recommendations and kept in touch. We consider her a great professional resource and also a friend and will absolutely recommend her to any friends or family who are looking to purchase or sell their home.

TJ worked very hard for many months to represent my wife and I as buyers. We are very picky, and we drastically changed our search parameters over time, nonetheless TJ always carried the same energy and focus through the whole search. We saw in person 100+ houses, and made (unsuccessful) offers on 8 of them. 2 of them came near closing, until we found last minute issues with the properties. Finally, our 9th offer worked out (phew!) TJ was beyond helpful during inspections, finding professional plumbers/inspectors/etc and scheduling them on our behalf. She drove the entire process from start to end, and ultimately made us very happy.

Maria is an absolute dream to work with. As a first time home buyer, the whole process is extremely overwhelming and scary. She made us feel extremely comfortable, cared for, and guided us seamlessly through the process from start to finish. She makes you feel as if you are her only client, giving you undivided attention and working hard to find your dream home. She's very flexible and willing to go whatever distance needed to find that perfect home, she follows up with realtors, and keeps a great working relationship with your best interest at heart.
I honestly can't say enough wonderful things about Maria. She started as an acquaintance and ended as a friend. We have been done with the escrow process for 2 weeks now and she still makes a point to call and text to see how everything is going, and willing to help when issues or questions arise. If you are looking for a 5 star experience in buying your next home, or first home, take the time to talk to Maria! You won't regret it.

I would highly recommend Maria Roller and the entire California Residential Consulting team to anyone looking to lease, sell, and/or purchase a home. Maria is an amazing real estate professional who truly understands the business and is always a pleasure to work with. She helped us purchase our first home 5 years ago, and we were so happy with her service we wanted to work with her again to sell and buy our next home. She is patient, hard working, and always puts her clients needs first. She provides great insight into the real estate market and did a fantastic job marketing and attracting buyers to our home. We are thrilled with the new home she helped us buy and she was there for us throughout the entire process. I cannot thank her enough for making this a seamless process and for the amazing level of communication from her and the Cal Res Team. Thank you!

TJ helped us sell our house in Carlsbad, CA. Selling a home can be stressful but not if you have an amazing agent like TJ. She has a wealth of experience she puts to use and she is tireless. We knew she was connected in the community and had the best up to date marketing methods. Each step of the way she communicated with us so we knew what to expect. T J has a great sense of humor and to know her is to love her. We were so pleased with how the process went even when there were challenges. Some people just deserve 6 stars and TJ is one of them!
